Description: "This volume illuminates the current body of research at the convergence of media, US Latinos, and politics. Building on historical assessments and contemporary social science-based research, the chapters herein document the evolution of political communication in the United States in response to the influence of Latino constituencies." "With relevance to political communication, political science, and Latino studies, The Mass Media and Latino Politics establishes the benchmark for the current state of scholarship in this arena. It is required reading for scholars and researchers in these areas, and will be useful as a text for advanced courses on politics, media, and minority populations in the United States."--Jacket.
